Does anyone remember the High School Dance?

I never went. Never wanted to. Not that I didn't like to dance. It just wasn't my thing.

Ok, looking back I don't know if it was my thing or not because I never went.

So, I make my kids go to the dances. It's not like I twist their arms or anything. I just encourage them to "try it" this year. Every year, every dance, every day is a little bit different then the rest --- if you want it to be. If you make it that way.

So the boy child and the new Thai daughter are at the dance with a few friends. I hope I have taught them one thing-- they can keep reinventing themselves at every dance.

As for me, I think I am pretty happy--- even if I don't dance as much as I once did -- as for reinventing myself.. well I think I am pretty happy with who I am--- even if I am not the girl who got asked to the dance. I always found my own fun! (shhh, don't tell the kids)
